So after listening to lots of DJ mixes, internet radio, and Satellite radio I realized that certain Dance songs get heavy play. So, like my Most Overplayed Songs lists, I've decided it was time to make one just about Dance music.

My biggest caveat about making this list is where I would draw the line between Dance music and Pop music. There's a lot of music on the radio that is Pop music first, but does have a Dance music back bone. For instance, Rihanna, who's teamed up with Calvin Harris on We Found Love, that's like a grey area, but I would sway that more towards the Pop side of things and be kept off this list... but the Chuckie remix of that song I would place on this list. I would also tend to think that a Dance record that breaks through to the Pop side would also be on this list. Then again, I can't really tell you where I would draw the line... this is my list.

With that said, if you're a DJ or an aspiring one, these are the Dance songs I have heard the most this Summer. Which maybe a good or bad thing, depending on your crowd. However, I would think twice about playing all these songs in a set, especially back to back... to back to back.
